2. A New Age of Decent
Tony ,   socal   (08.21.10)
The beginning of earth's downward spiral into a deepand dark age has quietly commenced. History will correctly place great responsibility on the hands of Obama under who's watch this has taken place. This start to runaway nuclear proliferation is irreversible and now underway and ultimately it is he who could have stopped it with minimal effort. As in WWII , even when "victory" is achieved millions will perish and suffer great agony. Prepare.
3. iran will not give a hoot to israeli threats, welldone iran!
EHUD ,   ISRATINE   (08.21.10)
4. IT'S IN GOD'S HANDS NOW
Robert ,   farmington,wv   (08.21.10)
Well since the international community turned there heads away from Iran and since America is lead by weak leaders ,and Israel can do no right by the United Nations and the international community Iran now is nuclear its now in gods hands.......may the lord forever bless the state of israel....
5. Delaying war with Iran also delays attacks on America that
Rivkah   (08.21.10)
will cause America to divide into four parts according to Daniel chapter 8 if America is the notable horn of Daniel and it appears that it is. The prophecies of Elam in the Bible indicate a far worse destruction than the destruction of nuclear plants that have not been fired up with nuclear fuel in the rods. Elam is Western Iran and the people will migrate to other countries, the destuction will be so horrific when the facilities are attacked. There are ways to protect Jerusalem and America from attacks by Iran even if Iran has nuclear weapons which it probably has had for decades since the old Soviet Union became the Russian Republic and nuclear weapons were sold on the black market (suitcase nukes). How can Jerusalem and America be protected from nuclear attacks? Isaiah the Prophet gave the reasons for Yahweh's not protecting Jerusalem which would also apply to Tel Aviv and America. The flaunting of sodomy, women with wanton eyes, and cheating the poor are the reasons Yahweh will nto protect Jerusalem. So force the gay community back into the closet or banish them from Jerusalem along with women with wanton eyes and those who cheat the poor and then Yahweh will protect Jerusalem. Same with Tel Aviv and America. There is another way America can be protected from destructions such as nuclear attacks. America must not pressure Israel to divide Jerusalem. If Jerusalem is divided, America will be divided into four parts. Joel the Prophet warns against dividing God's land because that leads to Armagedden. The end of the era of Gentile world rule is near unless the Palestinians are sent to the 57 Muslim nations that speak Arabic and kept far from Israel where the descendants of Esau will cause events that lead to Armageddon and the coming of the Jewish Messiah to rescue the apple of God's eye. The word translated apple is actually pupil Israel is the pupil of God's eye. To attack or divide Jerusalem or Israel is to attack God in his eye. When God arises and fights, God wins.
6. SUBMIT TO REALITIES
MAHMOOD ,   LONDON-UK   (08.21.10)
By accepting that Iran has adhered to the NPT and has demonstrated its responsibilities by allowing governing by IAEA inspectors.The hue and cry created by certain media in the West has resulted in cause of worry.Iranians are responsible enough to know their limitations and will more than prove it.Well done Iran!!
7. Israel needs a new reactor,Dimona built in 58 for 20yr use
Bloodyscot ,   Dallas, Texas   (08.21.10)
Dimona is the last reactor of it design still in use and has been for decades now. Israel has agreements with France, US and Norway(heavy water source) that Dimona will not be used to make nuclear weapons and to allow inspections.
8. #4 Robert
Alan ,   Europe   (08.21.10)
G.W.Bush was a strong leader. He accomplisged quite a few things, I'll just name 2: unemplyment about 10% and a trillion dollars spent in Iraq. Have a nice day.
9. :: Israel had its chance
Matty Groves ,   Fairport   (08.21.10)
The fact that Israel did not destroy the Bushehr reactor prior to this landmark event can only mean two things: 1) Israel is afraid to attack Iran by itself. 2) The US will not permit Israel attack Iran. Israel had it’s chance to stymie Iran’s nuclear ambitions and it didn’t take the opportunity. Such inaction by Israel will only embolden Iran further as it demonstrates that Israel is all talk and no action.
10. We are Betrayed by our Leaders Who ALLOWED this to Happen
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (08.21.10)
Who have refused to prevent the future nuclear holocaust by murderous, warmonger Iran who has vowed repeatedly to "wipe Israel off the map" and "destroy America". The Free World has NO leader. G-D help Israel, America and the Free World.
11.  'Attacking Bushehr reactor would be considered a crime'
Jrodstein ,   Basalt, Colorado   (08.21.10)
In Iran's world only the mullocracy can commit crimes cause allah is on their side!
12. Kudos to IRAN and greetings from Palestine
Nour ,   One-State الدولة   (08.21.10)
Congratulations Iran for achieving this great scientific feat. I would urge Iran and Iranians to work on their human right record because quite frankly a scientifically advanced oppressive society is a dangerous one. Nonetheless, thumbs up for putting the arrogant usurpers in their place and persevering their pyschological war.
13. #5 You refered to Jerusalem many times
Nour ,   One-State الدولة   (08.21.10)
...in your talkback. Perhaps you meant Tel Aviv? Not a single country in the world recognizes Jerusalem as your capital, so I suggest you give it a rest and accept reality.
14. Good for Dimona ,
Salma ,   Palestine   (08.21.10)
Dimona reactor will not feel lonely anymore :)
15. #8, actually unemployment
Danny   (08.21.10)
reached that level under Obama over a year AFTER Bush left but hey who cares about facts right?
16. #7, Really?
Danny   (08.21.10)
Maybe on planet BS this is true....
17. AS I PREDICTED, PARTY TIME
Mark from Georgia ,   USA   (08.21.10)
I predicted this yesterday, how it would be perceived, not just in Iran, by in the Islamic world. And here is the proof to quote the article: "Iranian Vice President and nuclear chief Ali Akbar Salehi. "Today is a historic day and will be remembered in history." and "the great Iranian nation and registered their name in Islamic Iran's golden history," So it's done, realistically does the world feel safer now?
18. Obama offered hand of friendship,Iran & Russia spook on it
Neo ,   EU   (08.21.10)
19. #1 Herr Peter...
RichinBoston ,   Boston USA   (08.21.10)
It's far from done. This reactor will never get fully lit.
20. Just remember...Isreael struck BOTH
RichinBoston ,   Boston USA   (08.21.10)
Iraqi reactors after the research reactor had gone hot. The Iranians don't make the rules.
21. iran
frank ,   israel   (08.21.10)
what exactly is a "conservative" iranian politician????
22. #18. Yes he did and the Zionist lobby...
Persian CAT   (08.21.10)
slapped him on the wrist. The "price" of that mistake will be paid by that foreign lobby shortly. The American people have awaken and realized the "lobby" is endangering the US national interests and they will act accordingly. Stay tuned.
23. what a bad moment
the hague ,   holland   (08.21.10)
How could the goverment of Israel let this happen to its people!? Or they trusted the (antisemitici) world. This coward world controlled by the muslims? It is so sick.
24. A reminder to all the happy Pals: you are not far enough,
should Iran nuke ,   Israel   (08.21.10)
25. re: 12 & 13 & 14
Ben S ,   USA   (08.21.10)
1) No such place as Palestine 2) Jerusalem will remain the undivided capital of Israel. 3) The Iranian nuclear program will be very short lived.
26. #19 Sure,sure. Same tone for around 10 years now?
Peter ,   Vienna-Austria   (08.21.10)
27. #15 Danny
Alan ,   Europe   (08.21.10)
your sloppy response reveals how ignorant you are. You just dont get it do you? The unemployment rate of almost 10% is a direct result of the financial crisis which is totally Bush's fault. It was Bush to let Lehman Brothers go down the drain and the financial system almost imploded. Thank god Bush left immediatelt after, I dont want to immagine what would have happened if he stayed longer in office. Danny either you have a very short memory or you are a complete ignorant.
28. #13 Jerusalem is the capital of Israel
Cynthia ,   USA   (08.21.10)
That is the reality. I suggest you accept it.
29. #28 Sure, and i'm Miley Cirus
Nour ,   One-State الدولة   (08.21.10)
30. 24 "Should..." : The Bible says that when Jerusalem is
Rivkah   (08.21.10)
attacked in what sounds like a nuclear attack since the women become bald (and the mighty men die) that the women are ravished. I don't think that means the Palestinian women, but the Jewish women; but it could be both as well as other women. So it must be a suitcase nuke that strikes Jerusalem and a small one at that for the enemies to rush in or not get hit with the bomb's effects. Radiation sickness and skin melting off one is not conducive to wanting to ravish a female. But the bomb kills the mighty men (of the IDF). Is there a concentration of IDF in or near Jerusalem that could be the target that added precautions and checkpoints could deter? Two thirds of Israel will perish before the Jewish Messiah comes, the Prophet Zechariah says. That could be a nuclear hit on Tel Aviv or the ocean rising suddenly like in a tsunami. So keep your Dad alive as long as Yahweh permits it because he is a protection for Israel.
